On Rex's view, most of the Standard gliders in the USA are not
airworthy. Yet I am under the impression that insurance companies are
not denying coverage on that basis.

Everything I've read and heard from insurance agents says this is not the
case. If the "illegal" equipment is not causal or contributory in any way to
the incident/accident, insurance companies have not been successful, in the
courts, in denying coverage.
